A note for parents

My Soul to Take is a dark, apocalyptic thriller with horror and supernatural elements centered on immortality, telepathy, and a battle between good and evil. The story involves significant violence, including deaths and murder by a mortal antagonist, along with mature themes of fate, sacrifice, and religious imagery from Revelation. While it explores meaningful messages about heroism and resistance to evil, the content is substantially darker and more violent than typical young adult fiction, making it best suited for mature teens and adults.

From the bestselling and award-winning author of The Reformatory, a heart-stopping novel that continues the story of descendants of an immortal line of people who are the only ones capable of saving the world. Fana, an immortal with tremendous telepathic abilities, is locked in a battle of wills. Her fiancé is Michel. But Johnny Wright, a mortal who is in love with her, believes that if she doesn’t stay away from Michel, they will become the Witnesses to the Apocalypse described in the Book of Revelation. Fana and the Life Brothers are rushing to distribute their healing “Living Blood” throughout the world, hoping to eliminate most diseases before Fana is bound to marry Michel. Still, they cannot heal people faster than Michel can kill them. Due weaves a tangled web in this novel, including beloved characters from her bestselling Joplin’s Ghost, in a war of good against evil, making My Soul to Take a chilling and thrilling experience.
